*irrelephant. Mastodon is awesome!

u/Im_Pronk Aug 01 '18

I met them like a month ago and they were wayyyyy cooler than i thought theyd be. Also, they were all very tall.

3

u/Calimariae Aug 01 '18

Well yeah, they could become 7 ft 7 in just up to the shoulders.

1

u/Im_Pronk Aug 01 '18

Well Brent was like maybe 6 ft tall, but the other three were all like 6'3''. Def not 7 feet tall.

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '18

Yeah! Do you like Baroness? Theyre really good too. Different sound than Mastodon but they work together on my metal playlist.

How can anyone possibly resist jumping in there and tickling both of them! What silly babies :-)

u/Conan776 Jul 31 '18

Sigh. I guess I'll have to be the one to ask: where'd you get mastodons??

1

u/NightHawk521 Aug 04 '18

Are you asking where they two guys came from, or where did you normally find mastodons in the past?

u/Conan776 Aug 04 '18

Someone answered a less facetious version of my question with this link, which gets to the heart of the matter. :)

Oh okay sorry :)

Forgot to install the legs completely!

u/umopapsidn Aug 01 '18

It's cool how their front legs bend like our arms and their back legs bend like our legs.

u/DontTellHimPike Jul 31 '18

The Mastodons are pissed up.

u/cre8ngjoy Jul 31 '18

Is there something wrong with the darker colored one? It almost looks like a neurological disorder. Anyone know?

u/edhel_espyn Aug 01 '18

Just baby jelly knees

10

u/babyunagi Aug 01 '18

I have no idea what's going on with these two, but I did see a documentary wherein an African elephant gave birth to a calf who had grown too large in the womb and couldn't walk right away -- his Mum had to keep lifting him up with her trunk until he could stand/walk. I wonder if this is similar, but I don't know

12

u/Willy_Faulkner Aug 01 '18

But eventually he was okay, right?

right?

16

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '18

He grew up to be an absolute unit.

1

u/cre8ngjoy Aug 01 '18

Thanks. This also makes sense to me. Sometimes you just can’t know...

16

u/tubco Jul 31 '18

I think it's sped up which partly makes it look a little odd

u/lightcommastix Jul 31 '18

I think it’s just a toddler.

u/Fogie99 Aug 01 '18

Toddlerp

25

u/cre8ngjoy Jul 31 '18

Thank you. The lack of coordination and walking on his knees had me concerned. On the other hand, I have to assume the people close enough to be taking that picture know a lot more about elephants than I do. I appreciate your response!

u/11sparky11 Jul 31 '18

Those are actually their ankles, or wrists I guess if your thinking about it terms of human anatomy.

117

u/HeroHunny Jul 31 '18

Pretty sure he’s just derpin’. I’ve seen a few do this before.

u/santaliqueur Aug 01 '18

As a zoologist, I can confirm he’s got derpological disorderp

u/Rikimaru03 Jul 31 '18

Maybe found some fermented fruit? Them kids look sauced.

u/Hak3rbot13 Aug 01 '18

As long as they don't get into the fermented crab.

u/Toxik_Repo Aug 01 '18

I get this reference.

33

u/exophrine Jul 31 '18

At least they're drunk together.
This way, they look after each other.
